Skyline Drive Cruise (from H-burg) & BBQ

Huh, they were calling rain this morning...hot is good!!!

**Goodspeed** · 09-12-2008, 06:22 PM

Something worth noting, I've read and heard of gas prices jumping due to Ike. If you need to fill up for the trip, I'd recommend doing it now to avoid possibly rising costs in your area. Again I hope nothing drastic enough occurs to deter people from the trip!

I filled up tonight when I was out. Went through 3 sold out gas stations before I found one to fill up at. Its crazy out there.

I still have more than 1/2 a tank... so I should be okay for the drive on Sunday but would like to fill up just in case. Guess I should do that tomorrow AM then.

Curtis - where did you find that was sold out?

**Ryan T** · 09-13-2008, 09:46 AM

Looks like it's supposed to be sunny and 92 tomorrow. My dumbass is gonna get a sunburn from having the top down!

All along Bridgewater it was. The one when you get off 81 heading towards the college. The one when you past the college at the intersection(on 42). The one if you make a right on 42 little bit down the road. I kept going on 42 and finally found one in harrisonburg with gas.

I went in and talked to the people at one of them and they said they sold out around 8 or 9ish and were waiting on a shipment at 5am. This was at 10pm and people kept pulling in to pump up the whole time i was there.

Freaking ike is a category 1 now also. Total bs.

I now know to bring a hat in the car at all times. :roll: Learned that one the hard way.

So buns are still needed? I'll grab a few packs of hot dog / burger buns. Anything else?

Spent all day working on the car getting it ready for the trip. See everyone tomorrow!

Not really. If you're driving, it'll cost 10 dollars to enter the SD, other than that everything else should be fine. Fill up in town and try to bring a food item!

95-GT0-MR · 09-13-2008, 09:08 PM

ok thanks. ill make sure to take out $10 when i fill up and pick up something at the store. ill also bring my camera.

***Jake*** · 09-14-2008, 12:27 AM

YES bring your camera! We always have good chances for photo stops/shoots and I think Skyline will be awesome for that. Very scenic...

**Goodspeed** · 09-14-2008, 12:56 AM

Scratch that, 15 dollars. Its 10 during the winter months, sorry I was confused.

REED · 09-14-2008, 08:58 AM

somehow I didn't realize this was THIS Sunday - anyway I made the drive down and back yesterday for the game - not really feeling making the trek all the way back down to the 'burg

have fun though

mdboost · 09-14-2008, 10:16 AM

Im coming! I'll be at the rockingham parking lot at 11, see you guys there

***Jake*** · 09-14-2008, 07:25 PM

Great cruise, e'eryone! Aside from a few non-MM drivers causing almost-bad situations, we all made it through Skyline to Jeff's (bawlin') house. I managed to win the "Lock Dem Shits Up" award on the way out of town (yay, no ABS!) but all was well on my end after that. Thanks to Jeff for having us over and letting us eat everything in sight Big Grin

PM me if you want things supar-hi-rez. Yes, I know I have dust on my camera's sensor... I'm too lazy to 'chop it out of the pix for now. Oh, and bonus - I scored 29 MPG today, with all the hoonage and everything:

Picture time! I'll post mine below, but I have them on a web gallery here. If you have anything good, definitely upload 'em there!

Rock on, see y'all at the meeting on Wednesday... assuming we have one?
